Priceline Hotel: 4* Phoenix (Goodyear - Litchfield Park) The Wigwam

[Shasson]

Priceline.Express Deals is currently offering a 4* in Phoenix (Goodyear-Litchfield Park) for $119 for my dates of April 10-12.  The only hotel that seems eligible for that location and star level is the Wigwam (which would be awesome). However, for my dates, the Wigwam shows no availability on their own website, and on pretty much all other hotel booking websites (including Priceline's retail page).

.

My fear would be that somehow the Renaissaince Resort in Glendale, about 5 miles north would actually be the win. However, based on priceline's maps, that shouldn't be the case.

So I guess I have two questions:

-are the maps pretty sacred? That is, if express deals offers a 4* in Goodyear-Litchfield Park, I can assume it really is in that region, and not anywhere else (I do realize that a new hotel could be a 4* in this area, though that seems fairly unlikely).

-If I "win" a PRICELINE EXPRESS deal for a hotel that is otherwise sold out, should I have any concerns about being bumped? I've been using PRICELINE either name-your-own or express deals for over a decade with no problem, but was curious if there were instances of priceliners being turned away.

 

Thanks!

Welcome to Betterbidding. :)
 

Please provide the amenities showing with the listing and we would be happy to take a look and try to ID the listing.

 

You can possibly get a hotel on the bidding side that is showing as booked elsewhere - it has definitely happened in the past that a hotel will show up unexpectedly as a win when it shows sold out elsewhere.

 

The hotel can be anywhere within the shaded region of the  map. There are instances where hotels have been overbooked - not necessarily when the hotel has shown sold out elsewhere. If the rare instance happens, you should be compensated and moved to a comparable hotel within a reasonable distance.

While receiving a hotel thru PRICELINE / HOTWIRE while the hotel is otherwise showing sold-out is more the exception than the rule, i think the Wigwam seems to be a reasonable guess for the one above and would be my best guess as well.

Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

Let us know how it goes or if we can be of further help.

Also applied 5% Spring14 coupon, as this was a PRICELINE EXPRESS Deal, for a 2 night total of $264.82

 

Thanks for the help, both in working through this board, and in confirming this is the hotel. VERY excited to get this deal on such a fantastic property!
